Seems like putting your efforts behind censoring and banning your user base while simultaneously trying to give a pass to a facist oligarchy is a bad idea. That's the thing about oligarchy, it's a small club and if you weren't already in it, you're not going to be any time soon. Facebook and Xitter don't want to share the money from ads and adversarial state\private actors
This is basically it. It is just harder to run a fascist oligarchy these days. People are way too connected and are sympathetic to other people from other countries. The propaganda can only go so far.
Please stop smoking the drapes. We are in the rise of massive fascism worldwide - I literally don't understand how you could make such a statement.
Yeah, the world is sliding into global fascism, and fast.
Even "Never Again" Germany has a major political party sympathetic with Nazis (AfD). If you talk to the average person in America, it is okay to have all of your rights stripped as long as you can use TikTok. We're in very dark times right now.
If anything, I think that people from around the world are very disconnected on average. The average person can barely care to support Ukraine, when Putin is clear-as-day running Stalin's playbook.
Lemmy and Reddit are not real life.
Yeah we have people that are fucking starving and borderline ready to riot in the streets like the depression in the twenties, child labor in the states is on the rise ... Fascism is on the rise... Basic human rights in the developed world are on the decline... Concentration of wealth is at an all-time high and the population which does all the work has the fewest resources in the history of the entire earth...
But "fuck Nestle" is the refrain
